>> it's a big plan. some were describing it as a huge long-term deficit reduction plan that includes some 3.6, $3.7 trillion in deficit reduction over the next ten years. $500 billion in deficit savings in the immediate term, if you will. it also is calling for new revenue, which some will read as tax increases, a touchy point there. another touchy point it takes on is entitlement reform. there is a lot in this plan. but this, the goal of this plan was really to make the president's fiscal commission, they came up with guidelines and suggestions to make that a reality. and this has been worked on for months by this bipartisan group of senators, three democrats, three republicans and they've come up with this massive plan. to be clear, their focus has always been on long-term deficit reduction not necessarily unless relation to this is specifically this debt ceiling debate as they've been looking at this far before this debate really heated up. >> brianna, what's the white house doing to make the case for

next up, big one, reforming the tax code. headline is they want to cut the number of tax brackets in half. now, there's six. they want three tax brackets and the goal of reforming the tax code overall is to raise a trillion dollars and the trillion dollars would also come from getting rid of some tax breaks and tax deductions. tax breaks for home mortgage interest and tax breaks for employer provided health care would go away but some of the money saved there would actually lower taxes for some other people and the plan also strictly tightens the government's budget process, they say and make sure social security stays afloat for the next 75 years. now, president obama gave this plan a thumbs up yesterday. republican majority leader eric cantor also said he thinks it's got some constructive ideas but the senate's top democrat, harry reid says he doesn't know if it can physically be written up as a law in under two weeks. guys? >> yeah, and so this is an outline -- thanks a lot, peter doocy. so this is an outline. they got to

and to reward the wealthiest 2% of our nation with tax cuts and of course big business with tax cuts. the republican majority wasted a crucial day of debate instead of protecting and working on the financial security for our nation. we could have debated a strong jobs agenda like the make it in america agenda the democrats have. we could have discussed how we can strengthen partnerships with businesses to retain america's workers for the jobs that are actually needed here. but what did they do as one former republican budget advisor called it? they debated something that was, and i quote, a misleading political cheap shot. the republicans cut, cap, and balance act is harmful for this country, and it's not a serious proposal. it's not going to be signed into law. they wasted our time. so i am glad that that bill is dead on arrival in the senate, but i really wish, i really wish they would get down to working for america. i yield back, mr. speaker. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from florida seek recognition? >> thank you, mr. speaker. by direction of the c
